The monsters pour out of the generators which lie throughout the dungeons. Each generator creates a specific type of monster, i.e. ghosts or demons. There are three levels of generators. Shoot the generators to destroy them. Monsters too, have three strengths, the most powerful taking three hits to kill.
Around the dungeons are objects to collect and avoid:
Treasure rooms appear randomly and the player has a fixed time to collect as many valuables as possible within a time limit, which is displayed at the top of the screen.
There is no score unless the player escapes. In general, players are immune to the other players' shots, but in some areas of the dungeon, missiles can stun or injure fellow players.
If players do not fight for about half a minute, the locked doors will disappear, freeing all of the monsters! Eventually, if players still avoid combat then all of the walls turn into exits!
Choose the colour and character you want by pointing the gauntlet and pressing the Fire Button.
How long you last depends upon your health. Health is lost by contact with the monsters and as time elapses. It can be regained by picking up the food which can be found in the maze. Be careful, some food can be destroyed by your shots and some may be poisoned.
The object of the game is to survive the monsters' attacks for as long as possible whilst competing for food, treasure and magic potions. You must also search the maze to find the exit to the next level.
For game controls, details will appear on the screen.
